Jack White’s Ex-Wife Files Restraining Order

August 2nd, 2013 Derek Scancarelli

According to the Nashville City Paper, Karen Elson is trying to keep her distance from Jack White. White evidently has been having some issues with his ex-wife, who is a model and musician. The source of the conflict is standard as in all messy divorces; the two have been battling it out over custody of the children. Elson claims that she feels unsafe around White, saying that this harassment is a threat towards the well-being of Henry Lee and Scarlett, White’s children, as well.

The Nashville City Paper reports:

“White wanted Elson to contact their kids’ private school in an effort to get their kids out of a class in which another entertainer’s child was present. White said that he feels that entertainer ‘ripped off’ his music, the order said. In another incident, White berated Elson when she attended the wedding of a rival musician. Again, he was upset because this entertainer also ‘ripped off’ his music, according to the order. The musician was unnamed in the court filing.”

On August 29, the next custody hearing is scheduled. Who do you think will get custody? Is it fair for a kid to be raised in a rockstar lifestyle? Let UTG know what you think after the jump.
